Take a look at this kid in this photo of JFK

So I come across this story about lost images from Life Magazine ... and here's one of JFK on the campaign trail in 1960. Take a look at the kid in the lower right. Is he pointing a gun at his own mouth? I tried to enlarge and it still looks that way to me. I tried googling "kid points gun at mouth during JFK speech" and got nothing.
What says the OT? Am I seeing things? There's another kid glancing at him.
JFK and weird kid

Kid next to him giving him the exact look my dad would give me if I was scratching my nose with a handgun

I wish I owned that chair/stool on which he's standing.

Remember when toys were cool?

He's picking his nose with his sidearm. No big deal.

A kid with a toy gun in the 60s? There is a reason this was a non story.

Is that Puto O'Rourke?

Cap pistol. Back before everyone became pussies they looked almost indistinguishable from a real colt 45 revolver at first glance. Part of many an epic cowboys and indians, uhhh, people of indigenous origin, game.
Also, that’s LBJ back there thinking, “that kid might be on to something….”

Everyone in this photo voted for JFK too, and continue to vote democratic 'til this day.

Not a single fattie in the entire audience

Yes, that’s a toy gun in that little kid’s hand. Can you imagine this scene ever happening again with a modern-day president? There’s a reason why the kid might have had the gun pointed at his own mouth.
First of all, it’s not just an ordinary toy gun, but it’s a squirt gun. The squirt guns existed before water bottles were commonly marketed, so the kid was drinking some water from his squirt gun, which was actually not unheard of use of squirt guns, because, as stated, there were no water bottles.
Kids were allowed to play with toy guns back in the day. Even at school or at public events. Toy guns were marketed as looking as close to real guns as possible.

The kid in question is probably drinking from a squirt gun

JFK was the last honorable democrat.
Anyway, that’s a harmless toy “cap gun” you had to buy these little orange revolver caps to go inside. Made a nice sound when you hit the trigger.

People didn’t freak out about fake guns and pop tarts in the shape of guns in the old days.
